Definitions
- the present invention relates to a storing box, which removably and lockably can be placed in a frame or the like in a car, a boat, a bookcase or the like.
- Storing boxes with and without cassette boxes are known.
- the storing boxes are either movably placed in a designated place or fixedly disposed in a frame or on a holder.
- the German patent publication DE-A-2 903 176 discloses a radio apparatus with a frame in which the radio can be exchanged and locked.
- the locking mechanism consists of a number of U-shaped cuts through the side walls of the radio forming plate springs, which snap, upon inserting the radio into the frame, into holes in the frame. Unlocking is accomplished by inserting a special unlocking device into holes in the front of the radio thereby disengaging the snap mechanism.
- EP-A-0 092 666 discloses a storing box containing a plurality of sleeves which can be pulled out of the storing box individually for storing tape cassettes or the like.
- the storing box according to the invention is provided, in a preferred embodiment, with a plurality of, say 5 or 10, boxes for music cassettes.
- a storing box is designed to be placed, removably and lockably, in its frame with one hand.
- Each box is, in a manner known per se, individually removable from the storing box by about half of its width.
- Said box is provided with a cover, which can be opened, when the box has been removed to such an extent, that a cassette can be taken out of or put into the box.
- the object of the present invention is to produce a storing box and a frame or the like in order to be able to control the storing box in the frame in a simple manner and, preferably with one hand, to exchange it as well as lock it in the frame.
- the present invention relates to a storing box with a frame in which it can be exchanged as well as locked. Also, the storing box is surrounded by a frame shell, which is fastened to the frame and supports the storing box.
- the storing box has also locking means for each one of the plate springs.
- the locking means are disposed along the inner surface of the corresponding side wall and are removably disposed in the storing box.
- a preferred embodiment of the storing box according to the present invention comprises a plurality of boxes for music cassettes or the like. These boxes can be individually pulled out of the storing box but just to a maximum of about half their length in the pull-out direction. They are preferably provided with covers, which can be opened in this pulled-out position of the boxes in order to put cassettes in them and remove them respectively.
- covers which can be opened in this pulled-out position of the boxes in order to put cassettes in them and remove them respectively.
- the function of the shoulders as the locking means of the plate spring and the storing box ceases and the storing box is, when the pull at the boxes is continued, removed from the frame/frame shell.
- the two chosen boxes In order to later on push the storing box into the frame and lock it in the frame, the two chosen boxes must be kept at their maximum pulled-out positions, when the storing box is pushed into the frame all the way. Subsequently, the two boxes can be pushed into the storing box all the way in order to attain a locking of the plate springs in the side walls and also anew the storing box in the frame/frame shell.
- the locking means of the two plate springs comprises a dovetailed recess as well as a locking plate designed for said recess.
- the recess is made in the inner surface of the corresponding gable wall.
- Figure 1 shows in perspective a storing box 1 having two side walls 2 and cassette boxes 3 (dashed lines), which can be pushed into the storing box.
- Storing box 1 is introduced into a frame 5 having a frame shell 7, which in this condition partially surrounds the storing box. All the boxes 3, also the ones not shown, are fully pushed into the storing box and the latter is fully pushed into frame openings 5, 7.
- FIG. 2 shows in perspective frame 5 and frame shell 7 fastened to the frame.
- Storing box 1 is fully removed from frame 5.
- Frame shell 7, which has a prismatic shape and is directed rearwards, is designed to retain and support storing box 1 in the frame opening and facilitates the positioning of the storing box in the frame opening.
- Two boxes 3, 3' are shown (partly dashed lines). They are pulled out of the storing box at a maximum. Locking devices, known per se but not shown, stop a continued removal of boxes 3,3' from the storing box.
- the portions of the partially but at a maximum pulled-out boxes 3, 3', which are positioned inside the storing box, have the same length as the sum of the thickness of frame 5 and the length of frame shell 7.
- shoulder 9 of plate spring 8 which is U-shaped and is cut out from the side wall or side walls 2 of the storing box.
- Shoulder 9 projects outside side wall 2 and normally, when boxes 3,3' have been pushed in, it locks the storing box in frame 5 and frame shell 7, since plate spring 8 cannot enter along the inner side wall of frame shell 7, since the two boxes 3, 3' in storing box 1 stop such an entry.
- a plate spring 8 having a shoulder 9 is also provided on opposite side wall 2 of the storing box.
- Figure 3 shows storing box 1 in Figures 1 and 2 in a horizontal cross section after having removed it from frame 5, 7 by means of two boxes 3, 3'.
- Plate springs 8 having projecting shoulders 9 with bevelled surfaces 10, which are shown in their entirety, are freely movable and have not stopped the removal of storing box 1 from frame 5 and frame shell 7.
- Projecting shoulders 9 have been pushed inwardly by means of edges 11 of frame shell 7, because bevelled surfaces 10 of shoulders 9 have slided along edges 11 and consequentlythe shoulders have been pushed inwardly and the storing box could be removed from frame shell 7 and frame 5 in its entirety.
- Figure 4 shows storing box 1, when it is fully introduced into its frame 5 and frame shell 7 as well as when it is partially pulled out of the frame and the frame shell.
- the two boxes 3, 3' which mainly are located on the same level as plate springs 8, 8, lock in a) the latter and consequently lock storing box 1 in frame 5, 7.
- Edges 11, 11' of frame shell 7 are an obstacle to shoulders 9 of plate springs 8.
- plate springs 8 become freely movable inwardly towards the interior of the storing box.
- FIG. 5 a particular embodiment of the invention is shown.
- a locking plate 53 is used in order to easily lock storing box 51 in its frame 55 (not shown) but also to easily loosen it and exchange it.
- Storing box 51 is initially pushed into its frame 55 and subsequently locking plate 53 is pushed into a dovetailed recess 53a in side wall 52 of storing box 51. Consequently plate spring 56 is locked by locking plate 53 and edge 511 (not shown) of frame shell 57.
- opposite side wall 52 there is preferably also a dovetailed recess 53a for a locking plate 53, which results in the storing box being firmly locked in its frame and its frame shell, when it has been pushed into the same.
